I had such a blast with Larissa and Tyler at their engagement session in Canmore! Thanks to some freakishly warm weather we’d been having this season, we managed to get some wonderful cozy shots in, without being bundled up to the nines! I’m so excited for their wedding already!
How did you and Tyler meet?
Tyler and Larissa met before high school when Tyler and Larissa’s brother played on the same hockey team. They would partner together in games every chance they could, and feelings grew from there. They started dating Larissa’s first year of university and moved in together November of 2014.
We have been blessed to grow up around successful marriages, and some of those relationships started the same as ours. Larissa’s grandparents and parents were both introduced through a brother, so we hope to have a marriage as strong as theirs.
What are you most looking forward to on your wedding day (aside from marrying your spouse)?
Larissa – I am most excited to see Tyler for the first time on our wedding day. It will be the last time as my fiance, before we promise each other our forever (and I get to call him my husband – AHH). The ceremony is what I am most excited for, but thinking of everything after is exciting too! It will be so much fun to celebrate in front of our closest family and friends. We intend to be on the dance floor all night long :)
Tyler – Aside from seeing Larissa for the first time as she walks down the aisle, Larissa and I are most excited to declare our love for each other in front of all our friends and family. We hope to capture many amazing memories as we celebrate with the people we love!
*Note – we did the answers for #2 independently! Funny how close our responses were!
Tell us a little bit about your wedding!
We are having a summer wedding with an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. We love the heat and summer is our favorite season, so this is perfect for us! We are expecting about 200 guests coming in from all over western Canada. We will have a very romantic feel with dusty rose and navy as our color scheme. All kinds of music playing but country is our favorite – we got engaged the weekend of Calgary’s first country music festival (although the proposal happened on the golf course). Both of our families are Ukrainian and love dancing! It will be a very fun celebration with a full dance floor and busy bar.
